Colorful Corn & Veggie Casserole

Submitted by Susie D

"This is an easy side or vegetarian main. Lots of vegetables and gooey cheese baked into a yummy casserole. I use a frozen mixed vegetable with corn, diced carrots, peas, & green beans. This is good served with roasted chicken or baked fish. Add a green salad & dinner is ready!"

What a great veggie dish. And it's so easy and goes together in a matter of minutes. The cheese added a lot of flavor and a nice creamy touch. For the frozen vegetables, I used a mix of carrots, corn and peas, but added about 1/3 cup more peas (for added color). This was a great dish. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Susie D.

Made this not only to serve with a chicken main dish, but also as A GREAT VEGETABLE DISH for my veggie son & DIL! Very much a comfort food, for sure! I did make one change, however, in that I substituted some green chilies for the jalapenos (Personal taste sometimes gets in the way of things!) & it was still very, very tasty! Thanks for sharing a nice keeper of a recipe! [Tagged, made not only for the Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup game, but also as a special thank you for a great director/host in the current round of PAC]

I really enjoyed this side dish. I'm not that familiar with Muenster cheese, but enjoyed the flavor and how well it melted. This casserole assembled simply and tasted great. Thanks for sharing, Susie. Made for Culinary Quest 2014.
